Biography
Born in Vichy, Honoré grew up in Pau. Honoré was a self-taught artist, getting published for the first time in 1957 in the regional newspaper Sud-Ouest.[3][4]
He worked as an industrial designer for the Société Nationale des Gaz du Sud-Ouest, a natural gas supplier.[3]
He became a staff cartoonist for Charlie Hebdo in 1992. With its thick line (somewhat reminiscent of woodcuts),[4][7] and strong reliance on black-and-white, Honoré's style stood out from the other Charlie Hebdo cartoonists.[8]
The last cartoon tweeted by Charlie Hebdo minutes before the attack was an illustration by Honoré of the ISIS leader, Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi, offering formal New Year's wishes.[9]
Honoré was critically wounded during the attack, and died in the hospital emergency room.[7]
